Clarendon Hills Blewitt Springs Grenache McLaren Vale

McLaren Vale, Australia
From old-vine Grenache in the Blewitt Springs sub-zone, one of McLaren Vale's finest sand-over-clay sites. The wine displays the variety's hallmark red cherry and spice with an unusual combination of power and delicacy: lifted aromatics, silky tannin, and a long, savoury finish.
complement
McLaren Vale Grenache and lamb is the region's everyday classic; salsa verde's herb-vinegar character provides the bright contrast that keeps the pairing lively while roasted potatoes absorb the rich juices.
classic main
complement
Old-vine Grenache's red cherry and spice are a natural partner for pork; cherry glaze creates a direct flavour bridge while pickled cucumber's acidity cuts through the pork's rich fat.

complement
Old-vine Grenache's cherry and spice find resonance with duck liver's richness; cherry compote creates a direct flavour bridge while brioche's butter provides the luxury texture the wine's delicacy demands.
established starter
complement
Grenache's strawberry and red-cherry character find harmony with Manchego's nuttiness; strawberry preserve echoes the wine's fruit while almonds add the savoury depth that grounds the pairing.
